Spalding Book Endowment Fund

Associates trustee Caroline Smith, '75 AB, has established the Spalding Book Endowment Fund with a gift of $15,000 which will provide perpetual income for acquisition of books on American studies. Miss Smith has made several previous gifts of funds and books to the library. She is a descendant of the Spaldings who settled in Maryland about 1650 and later in Kentucky and Georgia, and she named this fund in their honor.
